  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-006618",
  "term": "Linear distribution isotherm",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A relationship describing the equilibrium distribution of a solute between two immiscible phases where the concentration in one phase is directly proportional to its concentration in the other phase. This proportionality is maintained over a specific concentration range, indicating that the distribution coefficient remains constant. Such an isotherm is represented by a straight line when plotting the solute concentration in one phase against that in the other.",
